## Background and objectives: Lymph node metastasis is known as a significant predictor of prognosis in colorectal cancer patients. recently, reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr) has been applied to detecting micrometastasis. to assess the risk of recurrence and accurately deter
The staging of colorectal cancer currently depends on pathological examination of the surgical specimen and regional lymph nodes, accompanied by imaging tests such as computed tomography (CT) scanning. However, alternative molecular methods to detect circulating tumour cells in blood or bone marrow
